Da Hyun quickly wanted to tell Yul about her wedding news. When she first got a call from Yul, she thought Yul had heard the news late and contacted her.
But Yul seemed to have no idea. Probably because she lived abroad, she focused on local life and seemed not to have seen the wedding article.
So, Da Hyun didn’t tell Yul about the wedding news while on the phone. She wanted to tell Yul in person.
“That’s great. But, are you going back home?”
“No, are you crazy? I lived alone abroad, so of course, I have to live alone in Korea. I can’t live with my parents anymore because it’s uncomfortable.”
Yul asserted with exasperation that she could never live with her parents again. Da Hyun understood what she was saying.
The newlywed home that initially felt uncomfortable had now become incredibly comfortable, and the more time she spent with Min Hyuk, the more familiar and cozy it became.
Da Hyun opened her mouth to inform Yul that she had gotten married.
“It’s a boast.”
Just as a round glass cup was placed in front of Da Hyun, Chan, who was somewhat like Yul but not quite, sat across from her.
Thanks to Chan’s return from hanging up the phone, Da Hyun, who missed the timing, closed her mouth again.
As soon as Chan arrived, Yul’s voice became growly and fierce.
“So, are you going back to your parents’ house?”
“Are you insane?”
Her scowling eyes shifted towards Da Hyun.
“It’s been a long time, Han Da Hyun.”
“Yeah, it’s been a long time.”
Chan, true to being Yul’s twin who was about 168cm tall, boasted a height well over 185cm. Unlike Yul, Chan had slightly upturned eyes and sharp features, so he didn’t look as cute as her.
If Yul was feminine and cute, Chan exuded masculinity.
“You said you liked coffee, so I ordered it in advance before coming.”
“Thank you.”
“Da Hyun, do you know how much I wanted to see you? You even appeared in my dreams.”
The harmonious atmosphere continued. Chan looked at Da Hyun as if observing her, but she, unaware of his gaze, only focused on Yul, who was chatting enthusiastically beside her.
“But why haven’t you contacted me for more than half a year?”
Da Hyun poured out her resentment for Yul not contacting her for more than half a year.
Despite pouring out, the surging resentment made Da Hyun purse her lips.
Then Yul pointed at Chan with her index finger and glared at him.
“It’s all because of that guy. He set conditions that were perfectly suited to my preferences.”
“Conditions?”
Da Hyun tilted her head. What condition did he set? And why did it prevent her from communicating with Yul? She couldn’t understand.
Da Hyun’s gaze was fixed on Chan.
“I kept singing that I missed you. Then he said he would convince my parents and take responsibility for my independence if I could hold back from contacting you until we returned to Korea. I’m sorry, Da Hyun. It was an irresistible condition.”
Despite Yul’s cold gaze, Chan shrugged lightly and casually ignored her.
“But I texted you that I might not be able to contact you for a while. Didn’t you see it?”
“No, I didn’t see it. You sent a text? It didn’t come. If it did, I wouldn’t have been so upset.”
At Yul’s unheard words, Da Hyun’s brow narrowed. She didn’t remember receiving a text from Yul. If she had seen the message, she wouldn’t have been upset with Yul.
“Really? That’s strange.”
Yul rummaged through his mobile phone, then suddenly remembered he had replaced his broken one, a realization that made his face fall.
“I’m sorry, Da Hyun. I contacted you, then my mobile broke, so I bought a new one. I didn’t save the chat, so everything’s gone and there’s no way to check. I’m sorry. I should’ve contacted you in secret. I always keep my promises, don’t I?” Indeed, Yul was a man of honor who always kept his promises.
He never broke a promise.
“Right, you’re not the type to lie. There must’ve been a problem while sending it.”
“All the trouble is because of that kid. I don’t know why he followed me. Just when we were about to have a private chat after such a long time.” Yul glared back at Chan with a voice full of regret and irritation, apologizing to Da Hyun.
But Chan was used to Yul’s tone, so he just smiled.
“Anyway, even if both of you are here, Han Da Hyun will just quietly listen to your stories. What about it.”
“Huh, you don’t know our Da Hyun yet. She’s a talkative person like me, not so easy to deal with.”
“Bullshit.”
“Hey, Kim Chan. Now get lost. Please disappear from our sight.”
“I don’t want to.”
“Go meet your friends. You said you have a friend who just got discharged from the military. Why aren’t you going.”
Chan and Yul had been growling at each other since their school days. Despite their different looks, they had similar personalities because they were related by blood.
“I’ll make a call for a bit.”
At first, Da Hyun was going to go outside to make the call, but she was going to naturally ask who it was and tell him that it was her husband.
Yul and Chan started arguing while sharing embarrassing stories about each other from their time abroad.
Thanks to that, the two didn’t hear Da Hyun say she was going to make a call.
Da Hyun sighed and pressed the call button. The ringtone wasn’t long. She focused on the call, hearing a loving voice on the other side of the receiver.
The conversation went smoothly until Min Hyuk heard Chan’s voice and asked in an annoyed voice if her friend was a man.
“Oh, I met my friend who is a twin.”
Da Hyun glanced at Chan and calmly spoke.
A brief static passed through the receiver. After a moment, Min Hyuk sighed deeply and spoke in a subdued voice.
[Change your friend.] “Huh?”[I have to say hello as the husband of my wife’s only friend.] Da Hyun was taken aback by Min Hyuk’s sudden request to change Yul.
“I haven’t said it yet.”
She wanted to tell Yul herself, not someone else.
But she couldn’t help but be flustered when Min Hyuk asked her to change.
How shocked would he be to receive a call suddenly from Han Da Hyun’s husband when he thought she didn’t even have a boyfriend?
This was a different problem from suddenly losing contact.
Again, silence ensued. This time it was longer than before.
Da Hyun swallowed a sigh of anger towards herself for not mentioning the marriage to Yul right away.
Chan, seated opposite, noticed something was wrong by observing Da Hyun’s expression and closed his mouth. Then he rolled his eyes when Yul kept ranting, still unaware.
Only then did Yul turn his head and look at Da Hyun, who had her mouth closed and her mobile phone against her ear.
[Then I should do the talking. Hand it over. No, my, my precious friend, as her husband, I should at least treat her to a meal. Speaking of which, how about dinner tonight?] Min Hyuk broke the silence and spoke coldly.lu lu lo la ▪️ net (lululola.net)
My Step-brother Is Obsessed With Me (Female-dominant)
A gentle female protagonist vs pitiful in the early stage, and a sick male protagonist in the later stage
Cheng Songer transmigrated into the body of a vicious cannon fodder female supporting character with the same name as her in a female-dominant novel.
In the original story, the cannon fodder female supporting character was inhumane, committing domestic violence, gambling excessively, being lustful, and even wanting to sell her stepbrother to a brothel for money.
As luck would have it, she just happened to transmigrate at this time.
Seeing Cheng Qingzhi biting his lip, enduring the tears in his eyes, looking pitiful, her heart softened.
She stuffed the money back into the Madam’s hand and reached out to him.
“Brother, come home with me.”
